I cut sugar from my diet and am much happier.

It's crazy what a negative effect sugar has on our moods.

I stopped eating artificial sweeteners at 15, and fell back on real sugar as a substitute.
I became so much less healthy from a physical and emotional standpoint.

A few months ago I stopped eating sugar and I've become more clear headed, more emotionally stable, and lost over 35lbs without changing my exercise regiment.

When are you gonna wake up and stop eating sugar?

Solonoid · October 20, 2017, 11:08:30 AM

Also I still don't eat artifical sweeteners.
Anything sweet is a no.

Well sugars are in everything, it's mostly about the amount that people consume; which here in the US, is a crazy amount.

Generally I avoid anything with "High Fructose Corn Syrup" in its ingredients. But yeah I also keep in mind the amount of sugar in a item as well. Fat in whole milk isn't going to make someone fat, but all that damn shit in skim milk will definitely make someone fat.

EDIT: Well I feel like a fucking dumb ass. Feel free to talk shit about me more than usual. I just went grocery shopping and got 24 bottles of Powerade to last me two weeks. Usually I never bothered to look too much into Powerade because I thought even with it being bad it's still slightly better than soda. Looked at one of my bottles and literally the second thing in the ingredients right next to water: High Fructose Corn Syrup.

I'll let you all know when I get type-2 diabetes.

I did well cutting carbs and sugar over the summer and lost about 20lbs, but I wouldn't say I felt happier. Though I would like to cut them out of my diet again, but it's all the school really feeds us, and I'm not going to go out and buy my own food if I'm being forced to pay $3000 with this meal plan

That's okay, I understand and deserve this.

However I will let you know I only got blue and yellow today because they had no red.

You deserve this for enjoying red Powerade more than blue.

Proud of you. I need to do this, but I'm pretty sure I'm physically addicted to sugar. I need to work on that.

Onion · October 20, 2017, 12:18:30 PM

same except I still feel empty

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · October 20, 2017, 01:57:40 PM

Just like with salt, there is enough of sugar in the food already. Do not add EVEN MORE on top of that.

Good job OP. Now just stop frying food and switch to steaming / baking and you win at life.

It's ten times more addictive than cocaine!

And yeah, for the first few weeks I was literally drooling every time I walked past the donuts and muffins in the store.

Sugar destroyed my gut health. I've had hardly any for over 2 years.

The Hån · October 21, 2017, 10:49:22 PM

How on earth do you avoid sugars completely? it's pretty much in everything.

I go out of my way to avoid eating processed sugars, and try to eat more savory vegetables instead of sugar rich fruits.

But natural sugars in things like raw carrots aren't nearly as bad for you as a coke.

I eat a lot of meat. Raw fish is a favorite.
I don't eat white bread, but other breads still turn to sugar. It's just less extreme.

Pretty much all I drink is water, tea, and black coffee.

Dietrich Six · October 23, 2017, 01:42:42 AM

I eat whatever I want whenever I want and I still lost 30 pounds. Still want to die tho.

I honestly need your strength. I cry and get super moody if I don't have sugar. I honestly think I'm worst without sugar than I am without cigarettes. I hate it.

MarKhan · October 23, 2017, 10:55:58 AM

My dad said me that sweets are the root of all evil. I believed him, because he has fucked up health which allows him only to eat healthy stuff. I avoid eating sweets also because I don`t particularly like them in the first place.
